desire to kill himself and it was under
such influences that he undertook the
rash act at the river last "Wednesday

THE FORESTS IN FLAMES.
Lumber Districts of Wisconsin and Mich
igan Burning-PeopIe Fleeing for Life.

MILWAUKEE, May l3-Reports from vari-
rious points in the lumber districts of north
ern Wisconsin and Michigan tell of forest
fires. The season has thus far been excep-
tionaily free from rains, and the dryness gives
apprehension of serious danger. All Wednes-
day night and Thursday the village of Foster
City, Mich, was threatened with total de
struction. All the country between Munising
and Seney and for miles on either side
is in ashes. For twenty-four hours fires have
been raging around Nestoria and Three
Lakes, with every Indication of their spread
ing 10 an extent never before known in the
region. North of Negamee, Mich, big fires
are burning, while i'll every direction from
Autram, Mich, flames are destroying pine
forests Citizens of Autrain are fleeing for
their lives, taking only such valuables as can
be carried upon their backs Telegraph
communication with that region has been
cut oil. The extensive mill properties at
Forest City, forty miles west were only saved
10y the arrival of fire engines from Escanaba.
At Carney the destruction of the mills is mo-
mcntarilp expected At WauSaukee, Wis, the
most terrible forest fires ever known there are
burning, and the country for miles around
will he swept clean The citizens of all these
towns are fighting the flames desperately.
